Centaurus A Galaxy Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog

Using a wavelet decomposition detection algorithm, 246 individual point sources are detected above a limiting luminosity of ~ 2

• 10<sup>36</sup> ergs/s, 82 of which are detected in both data sets where the fields of view overlap. Thirty-eight sources were detected in only one observation but were within the field of view of both pointings, implying considerable variability. Eight foreground stars were identified in these observations, and nine of the sources were identified with known globular clusters in Centaurus A. All previously observed ROSAT sources within our field of view were detected. The faintest source in this table has 5 counts, which corresponds to a limiting luminosity of ~2.2 x 10<sup>36</sup> erg/s at the center of the field of view. The two observations of Cen A were made with the ACIS-I array (observation IDs were 00316 and 00962) on 1999 December 5 and 2000 May 17, with 35.9 36.5 ks exposures, respectively. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2007 based on CDS table J/ApJ/560/675 file table2.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
